Himalayas
from the tranquil vantage point of a hot
air balloon at their thousand meters we
can see an extraordinary scene of ancient
temples, monasteries and paddy fields.
The greatest of all gods, Shiva rested
from his labors making the world. With his
left hand he thrust his trident into the
ground thus creating the three perfect
lakes of Gokyo nestled beneath the sacred
mountain of Chomolonga (Mother Goddess of
all Earth - Mt. Everest).When you will take off, within minutes of the ascent, the majestic Himalayan panorama will great you from the rugged Langtang Himal to all the way to Mt. Everest will be your horizon, range after range .
The Shiva looked westward and with his
sword in his right hand cleft the mountain
of Chhobar. At the moment of impact
Chhobar became a gorge and the giant lake
within the valley was drained of all
water. The fertile Valley of Kathmandu was
born. But now look north to the snowcapped
mountains of Ganesh, Langtang, and Gauri
Shankar and of course Mount Everest and
you realize that the awesome wilderness of
Himalayas. We have hot air balloon
flights in Kathmandu and you will experience a 360 degree view of the world's highest mountain ranges.
